Keep your shift lever connected to the gearbox with the Pioneer Transmission Shift Cable CA-8004, which is designed to carry each movement of the lever to the transmission. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1985 Chevrolet Cavalier, 1984-1985 Buick Skyhawk and 1985 Cadillac Cimarron, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
Pioneer builds this manual transmission shift cable to OE specs as a high-quality replacement alternative. It pairs a durable steel inner cable with a polymer outer housing.
A shift cable may need replacing if the shifter feels loose or sloppy, if gears are hard to select, or if the lever position no longer matches the gear engaged. Inspect the shifter and linkage to confirm the cause before you replace the cable. If a stretched, binding or broken cable is the problem, CA-8004 replaces that link between the lever and the transmission. The Buyer's Guide tab lists every vehicle and engine this cable fits.
